Customer Reviews
To date I've bought the clear purple, clear blue, ice blue, clear green and clear pink and they're all really good shells. Fitment is great, colors are mostly great (ice blue is a massive let down) and even the membranes are great but DO NOT use any of the screws that come with the new shell. They're absolute garbage in every way. My only real beef is the lack of text on the rear shell and the missing DS logo on the front but hey, more room for decals!
The kit arrived quickly, packaged well in a secure box. Overall quality and presentation is very good, and it's handy to have screwdrivers and a pry tool included. The screw sets have spare screws for each type, too. The plastic parts of the shell are very nicely molded and finished. Fit and finish is excellent. Buttons are A, B, X, Y buttons are keyed, so they can only fit in the right spots, which is helpful.
I've never done this job before and found the ExtremeRate installation video was enough to see me though. It's long, but fitting one of these shells involves heaps of steps and that's how it's always going to be. The only thing I'd mention about the video -- all ribbon cables have a locking latch, including the smallest ribbon that connects to the lower screen. The latch for that one opens at the end *opposite* the entry point for the ribbon. Do *not* try to remove any of the ribbons without first releasing the locks first! Also, when refitting ribbons, it's like that you'll think it is inserted when there's still 1mm or so left to go. When fully inserted, the little side 'ears' on the brown section of the ribbon cable should be right up against the socket.
My main complaint is with the quality of some screws in the kit. The included Phillips head screws are passable but the tri-wing screws are rubbish - soft, pot metal. The heads will strip well before the screw is fully screwed down. Also, the included battery cover screw is about 1mm or 2mm too short to bite the thread. Luckily, the original Nintendo screws can be re-used in these situations, and they got me over the line.
Overall I can recommend this kit. It helps a lot to understand the job you're getting into beforehand. And I wouldn't recommend any DS Lite re-shell to a person who is impatient and/or ham-fisted. :-)
Everything went smoothly and the materials are solid quality. Only negative i can think of was the use of triwing screws and the dingy little screwdriver they give you but it got the job done in the end.
